1886


Madame Szyszko-Bohusz’s sepulchre voice filled the séance chamber, ‘Avenge me, Robert! Avenge my death!’

The spiritualist sprang back from the little table as Mr Telford landed a solid blow to Dr Watson’s head, dazing him and knocking him from his chair. Telford lunged forward, unsheathing the sword from his walking-stick.

‘You murdered my brother, and now you’ll pay!’

‘No! It wasn’t like that! Please, listen to me!’

The blade cut through the air, twice, thrice, drawing blood each time.

‘He trusted you and you betrayed him!’ Telford cried, his onslaught fuelled by the vengeful spirit who shrieked for Watson’s life-blood.

.oOOo.
